ABSTRACT:
This invention provides polynucleotide probes, sequences and methods for speciating and phenotyping organisms, for example, using probes based on theMycobacterium tuberculosisrpoB gene. The groups or species to which an organism belongs may be determined by comparing hybridization patterns of target nucleic acid from the organism to hybridization patterns in a database.
